Nothing new to say... just wanted to bump this one back above the old thread... :)

[musicoholic]

Thanks for the new thread Jeri - LOVE the title!!  ♪♫♪♫

....  and thanks for moving me - I completely forgot to ask ♥

Same here... nothing new to say...  CD2, yay! lol ...  but just wanted to bump up the list!

[MrsMike]

Thanks for the new thread. Hope to have one of those BFPs this season.

[yellowdart]

Woo hoo!  Let's get pregnant!

[sarah2881]

Thanks for the new thread!

Just thought I would add about the testing on holidays, when I did test on Christmas 2007 I was very much expecting a BFN, the only reason i tested was because we were spending the day with my in-laws and not drinking there is nearly impossible, so i wanted to do it without guilt! I was not really testing to try and get a BFP on Christmas. The odd thing for me was it was a blazing BFP at like 10dpo which is very unusual for me! But like i said, it all worked out, I think maybe it was God's way of telling me to just calm down, something good was coming, and it did. Now when I test on important days it is more to rule it out then to get positive confirmation, my need for a drink with the in-laws has not decreased over the years!

[Calycanth]

A2E - Thanks for the new thread!

Yellowdart - I second that.

[Sourire]

Yay new thread! Unfortunately I started spotting again... on the one hand its very very light so its not over yet. On the other hand, in past months when I have had a pause in the spotting for a few hours or a day, when it starts back up again it always turns into AF. I guess I'll find out soon!

[karmamamaa]

A2E- thanks for the new thread!

Can you move me to waiting to know?

[CDsMom1031]

Just reposting. Thanks for the new thread, A2E. =D

I'm on CD18 right now. 9 days until AF is due. *WAITING* I hate this stupid TWW. And I don't even have fun obsessing anymore because it just depresses me. Plus I've read every single website out there about TWW symptoms, so I've got nothing left to read. LOL!

I went to the boat last night for the second time ever. 30 seconds after I got there, I won $52... Then I lost all of that plus $34. =( This is why I don't gamble. I'm SO mad at myself for not cashing out, but I had literally just gotten there... Grrr.

I also went to a strip club and had two drinks. I've had a headache and nausea ALL day. This is why I don't drink EVER. Hangovers come after me with a FURY even if I've only had 1-2 drinks.

Besides that, nothing going on baby wise. Even though our timing was sooo awesome this cycle, I still don't see anything coming of it. I've learned to not get my hopes up at all.

For some reason I can't bold my writing, but if you see this could I be added to waiting to O.


I'm on CD 13, estimated to O tomorrow on FF. I don't temp, I guess because I've been fooling myself thinking we'd be pregnant by now, my past year since coming off Nuvaring my cycles have been 25-30 days. This month I've been taking vitex b6 and royal jelly, trying to stop my spotting. So fingers crossed for a BFP in 2 weeks! Anyone else at cd13?

Music- ss af arrived

Sourire- hope your spotting goes away!

[CDsMom1031]

You have to write what you want in bold then highlight it and click the B.

Close, I'm on CD12. :)  My cycles run a bit longer though, so I probably have another week until O.

Yep, Like TTCChloe said, just write it out, highlight it then click the "B" above your reply.... but I gotcha this time anyway ;) Just make sure you make sure to bold your changes so I don't miss them again... I knew I missed adding someone the other day but couldn't find it. Sorry about that. Welcome and hope your stay is super short! :)

Darnit, I was doing so good about not obsessing this cycle.... but then I realized that I would get my BFP in early December and then we could keep it a secret until Christmas morning and tell DD... She wants a baby brother or sister so bad that giving her something (I'm not letting myself think of exactly HOW to do it yet) to tell her would just make it pure magic.... I want so bad to give this to her for Christmas that it hurts. Her face would be something I would remember for the rest of my life.... I wish I would have never thought of that because now if I get a BFN, it's going to hurt to know that I CAN'T give that to her. Now I just wish I had a way NOT to think about this for the next 10 days. Blah.

You know, I gotta say, my boobs are as sore as they're ever been, and I keep getting ovary pangs.  FF says I'm 6 dpo, but I think I'm 7 dpo.  The thing is, these has been going on since more or less 1 DPO, although the boobs may have gotten worse in the last couple days.  I don't interpret this as pregnancy symptoms since it's still a bit early; rather, I think it might be related to the soy I took.  I did 40 mg per day on CD 4 through 8, kinda just to see what would happen and thinking that dose should be too low to mess anything up.  Anyone else get exaggerated 2ww symptoms after soy?

[jojobean]

Thanks for the new thread!

[StephandOwen]

Just popping in to say hi and good luck this week ladies!! We've had quite a few BFP's the last couple days.... let's keep it going!

We're still hanging out in waiting to be ready. 21 more pills to take (including todays) and then I'm done and we'll start TTC!! I'm so tempted just to say heck with it and stop now, but I'm being selfish and want to drink on our honeymoon. LOL!

I got an ap on my phone that I was hoping someone could help me out with.... it's like fertility friend (only I don't think it uses a graph). There's a calendar and you insert when your period started, when it ended, when you have sex, your temp, etc. I put in my period from Nov 4-8. Then I put my next AF on Dec 22-26 (because I'm on the pill and should be taking the blank week right now to have my period this week but will skip it and start a new pack of active pills). Using that info it predicts the next fertile time to be Jan 7-12 and the next expected period to be Jan 31. Is that just totally messed up? Should I ignore all of that and expect ovulation around January 5th and next AF around Jan 19th? Totally confused now on how this all works since I've been on the pill so long (so a 4 week rotation).

Crossing my fingers that you get your Christmas wish, Jeri!!!

[bonadl2]

Thanks for the new thread Jeri!  I really truly hope you get your Christmas wish!!!  That would be so wonderful!

yellowdart - never used soy, but :fingersx for you!!!

Positive OPK tonight so despite the UTI (feeling a little better this evening), DH and I squeezed in another BD.  Tried Preseed this time.  Can't hurt, right?  So not motivated this cycle.  :-P  

[CDsMom1031]

I use one of those on my phone, too. It gets more accurate the more months you use it. I only use it as a reference since I don't include temps or anything though. I reference the O dates it gives me and track my CM to have a better idea of when it's happening. So far it's been pretty accurate. I wouldn't start believing the dates until you've put in three periods, especially since you're coming off BCP, it might be really wacked out for awhile while your body regulates itself. Any more ?'s, let me know. I've been using mine since July. =)

thanks for finding me! I think it is because I'm accessing from my cell phone the site doesn't work as well, It works fine on my laptop, I don't think I can highlight on here. :-/

A2E- fingers crossed for your Christmas wish!
